Turkey wants to add more value to its finished leather
24/07/2014
In 2013, Turkish tanners exported finished leather, particularly for shoe uppers and garment nappa, with a total value of more than $300 million. Now, in association with the ministry for the economy and development, industry bodies such as the leather exporters’ union and the footwear manufacturers’ association want to meet to discuss ways in which to add greater value on domestic soil.
Commentators on the Turkish leather industry have said discussions about an increase in the country’s capacity for producing footwear and leather garments are likely to feature prominently.
